<h1>ChartModel</h1>
<p>Chart components are based on <a href="https://www.chartjs.org/">Charts.js</a>, an open source HTML5 based charting library.</p>
<h5>Getting Started</h5>
<p>
Chart component is a wrapper around on <a href="https://www.chartjs.org/docs/3.3.2/">Chart.js 3.3.2+</a> so chart.js needs to be included in your project. For a complete documentation and samples please refer to the
<a href="https://www.chartjs.org/">chart.js website</a>.
</p>
<pre v-code.script><code>
npm install chart.js --save
</code></pre>
<h5>Import via Module</h5>
<pre v-code.script><code>
import Chart from 'primevue/chart';
</code></pre>
<h5>Import via CDN</h5>
<pre v-code><code>
&lt;script src="https://unpkg.com/primevue@^3/core/core.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script src="https://unpkg.com/primevue@^3/chart/chart.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
</code></pre>
<h5>Chart Types</h5>
<p>Chart type is defined using the <i>type</i> property. Currently there are 6 options available; <b>pie</b>, <b>doughnut</b>, <b>line</b>, <b>bar</b>, <b>radar</b> and <b>polarArea</b>.</p>
<h5>Data</h5>
<p>
Data of a chart is provided using a binding to the <i>data</i> property, each type has its own format of data. Here is an example of a line chart. For more information refer to the
<a href="https://www.chartjs.org/">charts.js</a> documentation.
</p>
<pre v-code><code>
&lt;Chart type="bar" :data="basicData" /&gt;
</code></pre>
<pre v-code.script><code>
export default {
data() {
return {
basicData: {
labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July'],
datasets: [
{
label: 'My First dataset',
backgroundColor: '#42A5F5',
data: [65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40]
},
{
label: 'My Second dataset',
backgroundColor: '#9CCC65',
data: [28, 48, 40, 19, 86, 27, 90]
}
]
}
}
}
}
</code></pre>
<h5>Options</h5>
<p>
While a series can be customized per dataset, general chart options are defined with options property. Example below adds a title and customizes the legend position of the chart. For all available options refer to the
<a href="https://www.chartjs.org/">charts.js</a> documentation.
</p>
<pre v-code><code>
&lt;Chart type="line" :data="data" :options="options" /&gt;
</code></pre>
<pre v-code.script><code>
options: {
responsive: true,
hoverMode: 'index',
stacked: false,
scales: {
yAxes: [{
type: 'linear',
display: true,
position: 'left',
id: 'y-axis-1',
},
{
type: 'linear',
display: true,
position: 'right',
id: 'y-axis-2',
gridLines: {
drawOnChartArea: false
}
}]
}
}
</code></pre>

<h5>Accessibility</h5>
<p>
Chart components internally use <i>canvas</i> element, refer to the <a href="https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/general/accessibility.html">Chart.js accessibility</a> guide for more information. The canvas element can be customized with
<i>canvasProps</i> property to define aria roles and properties, in addition any content inside the component is directly passed as a child of the canvas to be able to provide fallback content like a table.
</p>
<pre v-code><code>
&lt;Chart type="line" :data="data" :canvasProps="{'role': 'img', 'aria-label': 'Data'}" /&gt;
</code></pre>
